Some psychological study shows that all have different perceptions, which affect our expectations and attitudes in life in general and in our business dealings. Our attitudes and perceptions of other people affect our relationships with them. Perceptions can often be more important than reality. When taking part in a business meeting or negotiation, it can be useful to think about how you see yourself in the business relationship. Some people perceive themselves as being in the stronger position, others consider themselves as a weaker. This immediately creates a win or lose situation. If people put themselves and their opposite number somewhere between the two positions, they are more likely to work together to find common interests and to end up with a win situation in which both parties achieve something. This outcome not only leaves people feeling satisfied but also contributes towards a successful, long-term relationship. In most business dealings, it is important to work on relationships and the establishment of rapport. This includes thinking about common interests, rather than conflicting positions. It is useful, therefore, in a discussion to consider your opposite number's approach and to consider the best way of dealing with that person. If you're dealing with a skeptical person who does not like to take risks, you will need to build up his trust and enable him to have confidence in you. If you are dealing with various people of different professional backgrounds, it may help to consider varying your approach or presentation so that it is more relevant and interesting to the particular person with whom you are dealing. For example, people with a financial background often respond well to graphic input and a linear approach. So if you can adapt your approach to your customer or business colleague, he or she is more likely to identify with you and therefore cooperate with you.

单选题 The word on the lips of many of the 17 leaders of the eurozone following this week's meeting of heads of state—the 18th summit, for those who are counting—is Eurobonds. The ideas behind them, though, are out of sync. "Europe can have Eurobonds soon," Italian Prime Minister Mario Monti insisted. "[The] taboo surrounding Eurobonds has been lifted," European Council President Herman Von Rompuy declared. Not so fast, German Central Bank chief Jens Weidmann chimed in, "It is an illusion to think Eurobonds will solve the current crisis." So, what exactly is a Eurobond? Briefly put, it is a tool intended to collectivize debt across all eurozone countries. Right now, to raise funds, eurozone members have only one option: selling national bonds. The market determines the value of these bonds based on each country's fiscal and economic health. The problem is that as some European countries were roiled by a national asset bubble (Ireland) or experienced a decade of lackluster economic growth while racking up unsustainable levels of debt (Greece and Portugal), they became unable to tap private markets, and their existing debt became prohibitively expensive to pay back. To service their debt, these countries had to receive funds from the International Monetary Fund, the European Central Bank, and the European Commission. But with the crisis deepening and spreading to Italy and Spain, it looks like another solution is required: the Eurobond. In theory, Eurobonds would allow debt-ridden countries like Greece to borrow at more affordable interest rates. For instance, according to the Guardian newspaper, if Eurobonds were adopted, Portugal would see its annual debt repayments fall by as much as $18 billion or 9 percent of GDP Other struggling European countries, such as Italy, Spain, or even France, would likely see similar savings. But even as Eurobonds relieved the crisis in the periphery; they would increase the borrowing costs of countries in better financial health. For example, according to the same article, if Eurobonds were introduced, Germany's borrowing costs would rise above the current eurozone average, costing Berlin an extra $62 billion, or 2 percent of GDP, per year to service its debt. What prevents the wealthier countries, or more specifically Germany, from getting to yes on Eurobonds? In a nutshell, moral hazard: If Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, and Spain were allowed to borrow at lower rates, the market pressure to implement deep and difficult structural reforms would disappear. The path to European redemption, according to German leaders and the European Central Bank, must only come through difficult reforms and fiscal discipline, not the same sort of low-cost borrowing that got the periphery countries into their current difficulties. This moral hazard argument was precisely why Germany demanded a fiscal compact treaty (which maintains strict fiscal debt and deficit limits) in December in return for additional bailout funds.
